SULIT : 1119/2 0ues&'!s 1/ . 22 ased on the ad&ertisement gi&en+ com)lete the *ollo(ing gra)hic organiser.
Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow.
+ LIHAT HALAMAN SEBELAH 1 Don disappeared into the thin line of palms above the beach. Everyone waited in excited silence. Salleh knew that conditions had to be just right for the giant turtles to make their way on land. To actually find one just about to lay her eggs was more than he had hoped for. The last thing they wanted to do was scare her off. Giant green turtles are not so plentiful.
5 2 Turtles are very timid and easily frightened, especially when laying their eggs. The last thing they wanted was to scare her off. Giant green turtles are not so very plentiful. They fall prey to lots of natural predators, from birds and sand crabs which search out the buried eggs and feast on the newly hatched young as they scurry towards the sea, to larger, more sinister attackers beneath the waves. Salleh thought again of the young turtle with only three flippers. That one was lucky. A shark attack is usually more final. And then there is man. Turtles eggs, turtle soup and turtle shell jewellery are available in thousands of shops and restaurants. Salleh sighed. When would people ever learn?
10 3 Don returned as quickly and quietly as he had left. Right everybody. We can go up now. Dont get too close and keep quiet. Follow me.
15 4 Salleh was close behind Don as they neared the trees. He heard the turtle before he saw her. The sound of the turtles very slow and cavernous breathing reached his ears. It seemed to come from far away and reminded him of someone with bronchial lungs, filled with water and labouring to gain enough oxygen.
20 5 Following Dons tracks they moved in closer. Salleh could hear the sound of soft sand falling on leaves like raindrops, and then he saw her dark outline half-buried in the sand. Don turned on his torch. Salleh was amazed by what he saw and stifled a gasp.
6 Even after his underwater encounter the other day he marvelled at her size. She was at least two metres long. As Salleh touched her shell, the turtle moved forward a little, her powerful front flippers having managed to find a grip in the soft sand. Everyone crowded round when they saw why she had moved. Eggs! Dozens of eggs! They looked like a collection of oversized tennis balls and just as delicate. A camera flashed several times but luckily it did not seem to disturb her.
SULIT 10 1119/2 7 They all watched spellbound for a long time as the turtle struggled to cover her eggs. Her breathing become more laboured as her instincts to protect her eggs drove her to work furiously to cover them as quickly as possible. Salleh thought ruefully that she looked near to exhaustion.
8 She would have to labour for several hours until her work was done and then drag her heavy shell back to the protecting waters. Eventually at Dons request, everyone reluctantly left her alone. Salleh took a last look at her wizened and wrinkled face, ugly yet beautiful. Her large eyes were like pools of water, deep and serene.
